Chapter 1691 (1/2)
At the end of May 2009, fortune released the world's top 500 list.
At that time, remote holding group ranked 280 in the top 500 with revenue of US $30.5 billion.
The only company in the top 10 of Huaxia is petrochemicals, with revenue of 207.8 billion US dollars, ranking ninth in the world.
However, the former three worlds are far away.
In 2009, Wal Mart fell from No. 1 to No. 3 in the world with revenue of $405 billion.
At that time, Wal Mart's revenue was more than 13 times that of the whole group far away!
Not to mention the base of 10 billion level, even if it is a million billion level, few people can achieve more than 10 times of span.
Even if everyone knows, Li Dong is a myth.
But after all, it is still too late to start, people are too young.
Compared with Wal Mart's half a century of accumulation, Li Dong can pull the gap between the two sides to less than 20 times in a few years, which is an incredible myth.
As far as Li Dong and the distance call out to surpass, it is more of a kind of morale encouragement.
But in 2009, many people suddenly fell into a trance.
Maybe Li Dong is not really bragging.
Can't we surpass Wal Mart in revenue?
In the past, almost no one thought it was possible, even if it was, in 10 years, or 20 years later
At that time, Li Dong was also young, and people valued the future more.
But now, as it turns out, it may not take that long.
In 2009, with the acquisition of enterprises, the revenue has exceeded the trillion mark!
Close to 150 billion US dollars of revenue, instantly will be 13 times before the gap, pull to less than 3 times!
Starting from zero in 2004, Wal Mart was the number one company in the world with revenue of 288 billion US dollars.
In six years, the distance has gone from zero to $150 billion.
Wal Mart, on the other hand, has gone from $288 billion to $405 billion, and may be higher in 2009.
From the growth of revenue, the difference is not too big.
However, in terms of the increase alone, there is no comparability.
Wal Mart is based there. Over the years, the growth rate is less than 100%. The base is too high. It is extremely difficult to achieve double growth.
But far away, no year's growth rate is less than 100%.
In just a few years, the distance has rapidly narrowed the distance with Wal Mart.
Nearly three times the gap, because of the base number, is still like a natural moat, but at this moment, many people believe that Li Dong can really do what he said - surpass Wal Mart!
And according to the 2009 list statistics, the distance is enough to enter the top 20 of the world's top 500.
In 2009, GM, ranked 18th, had revenue of $149 billion.
Although the annual data of the world's top 500 companies are different, the growth rate of these big enterprises in the top ranks is not too big. After all, the base number is already very high.
Even if you can't get into the top 20 from afar, the top 30 is stable.
It took six years from nothing to the top 30 of the world's top 500.
How long will it take from the top 30 to the first in the world?
There is a lot of discussion on the Internet.
Someone said: ”three years is enough. Brother Pao is born for the miracle.”
Some people also said: ”the distance is almost to the limit. Almost all the top ten retail enterprises in China have been swallowed up. It's too difficult to make rapid progress as in 2009!”
This is not a lie, but a fact.
In 2009, the reason for the rapid development in the distance lies in the annexation of too many enterprises.
Among the top ten retail stores in China, Guomei, Gaoxin, Dashang, Huarun, Wumei, Wumei and Wushang have merged six stores in a year!
In addition, far away occupies one of its top ten retail enterprises, and one from afar occupies seven seats.
Now there are only Bailian, Sulin and Wal Mart.
Even if the distance continues to swallow up the three, the increase is not as much as imagined.
To surpass Wal Mart, it is a drop in the bucket.
Although many people believe that Li Dong can create miracles, they don't think that under such circumstances, Li Dong can bring hundreds of billions of dollars of revenue growth to the distance for no reason.
Today's distance, Wal Mart is only a few times the gap, but in fact, there is still a petrochemical distance between the two.
Can Li Dong rebuild a petrochemical industry in three years?
There are people who blindly trust Li Dong, but after all, there are rational people who think that there is little hope.
However, some people analyze that it is not necessarily hopeless.
With the rapid development of e-commerce, in addition to the merger and acquisition of the above enterprises, the more important thing is that the distant mall has brought countless miracles to the distance.
Not counting the third party, the self-employed business alone has at least brought about 300 billion revenue in the distance.In 2008, the self operated business transaction volume of the remote mall was less than 100 billion, about 90 billion.
The rise in the distance is mainly due to M & A.
Such a high online increase is not the reason for M & A. The proportion of self operated business of tmall is not high, mainly due to the growth of remote mall itself.
This has a lot to do with the development of mobile Internet in 2009. Since September, the proportion of mobile shopping has been increasing.
In November, during the period of double 11, this proportion increased by a large margin.
By December, the proportion of mobile Internet shopping has reached 30%. This significant increase is enough to show that the effect of promoting the development of mobile Internet is extremely obvious before the distance.
Until now, many people realized that Li Dong had a long-term vision.
Many people thought that Li Dong was mainly for oppo. After all, oppo was the largest provider of smart phones at that time.
But when the competition with Teng Xun and the emergence of wechat, some people think that Li Dong is to calculate Teng Xun.
However, at this time, when various projects of remote technology, including other remote systems, have benefited from the mobile Internet, many people can see that Li Dong is not promoting a single project, but for the whole distance.
In the field of mobile Internet, it is the first to promote from afar, and naturally it is also the party with the most profits.
Nowadays, all the industries far away occupy a leading position in the mobile terminal, including the terminal market.
Although oppo is not a distant industry, everyone knows that Li Dong has shares in oppo.
A large emerging industry can no longer be used in a single field. Such a large industry is almost monopolized by a distant place. How terrible.
With such a foundation, can we really not surpass Wal Mart from afar?
……
This issue is not only discussed by the outside world.
In fact, it is also discussed in the distance.
In 2009, when the world's top 500 list just came down, Yuan Chengdao and several other people went to see Li Dong once.
At that time, Li Dong said, surpassing Wal Mart in two years.
On the spot, everyone was silly and felt that Li Dong was joking.
Yuan Chengdao even refuted Li Dong on the spot. In Yuan Chengdao's plan, it would be great if the revenue from afar could reach 500 billion yuan by the end of 2009.
And even if it reaches 500 billion, Wal Mart is far away.
Wal Mart, whose revenue is close to 3 trillion yuan, is it so good to surpass?
In Yuan Chengdao's opinion, it is better not to raise such an idea in ten years.
But now, it turns out, as long as you dare to think, there is nothing you can't do.
At the end of 2009, the revenue of the remote area has exceeded the trillion mark. Although the debt of hundreds of billions has been increased, it is also the ability to borrow money.
At this time, Yuan Chengdao was somewhat shaken.
From the beginning, he didn't believe it at all. Now, he wavered. Two years later, 12 years later, can't we really surpass Wal Mart?
Yuan Chengdao threw this doubt to Sun Tao.
Sun Tao, who had just returned from his honeymoon, heard yuan Chengdao's question and thought about it for a long time before he replied: ”whether we can surpass him is no longer the problem of general manager Li, but our problem.”
Yuan Chengdao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly felt the pressure of the mountain!
Yes, this is no longer Li Dong's problem.
Since Li Dong put the name of CEO on his head, everything has been transferred to him.
Li Dong has achieved what he said, even more successful than what he said. In 2009, he achieved a trillion revenue.
At this time, the goal of surpassing Wal Mart lies in him and the new team, not Li Dong.
Sun Tao's words, instantly let yuan Chengdao some suffocating sense of oppression.
Before, they had been looking forward to Li Dong's leaving and giving them space to display.
